The Warriors start their season at home Wednesday against the Lakers and travel to Los Angeles to face the Clippers on Thursday. Barnes will not be available for either game, as he works to overcome a foot injury that has kept him out of action since Oct. 7.

To this point, Barnes' injury has only been described as "left foot inflammation." Still, the injury is severe enough that Harrison feels pain when he makes certain movements on the court, Thompson notes.

Because of that, Jackson will keep Barnes out for the moment. He will not return until he is 100 percent, the coach told Thompson.
